Legacy Church to be ‘the hands and feet of Jesus Christ’ during Love Rome Day
Legacy Church will hold Love Rome Day for the second year in a row, giving away 100 pounds of food to each family in need as Thanksgiving approaches. Registration is currently open. “Where we are located in Rome — close to downtown — we are always having people come by our church needing help (and) calling us,” Lead Pastor Chase Holsomback said. “I receive at least 40 to 50 calls a month from people needing assistance, and so last year we started doing Love Rome Day. It was our way of giving back to our city and our community and showing the love of Christ and being the church in this time of need.” Love Rome Day will be held Nov. 21, and those interested can register on their website, LegacyRome.com/love-rome-day .

Floyd County College and Career Academy students visit Coosa Steel
Students from the Floyd County College and Career Academy visited Coosa Steel on Thursday to see what working in a steel manufacturing facility might look like as they consider careers after graduation. The students were given a tour by plant manager Chance Highfield, a Model High School graduate who has been with the company for 18 years. Coosa Steel is a full-line steel service center on Darlington Drive. Started in 1972 by the Saville family, it sells bulk steel, the way a lumber yard sells wood products, and manufactures a full line of steel products used by almost every industry. “Right now, our biggest business is manufacturing and selling steel racks, mostly for the tire business,” Highfield said. “So if you need a mobile and collapsible rack, you’re going to want to talk to Coosa Steel.” During the tour, Highfield led students through the various buildings on the property, explaining what the machines do and what individual employees were working on. The company offers robotic plasma cutting, tube laser cutting, steel plate processing up to 6 inches thick, cold-cut steel sawing and precision structural steel punching, among other technologies. Several of the students studying computer-aided design at the academy expressed
